Cytochrome oxidase deficiency: immunological studies of skeletal muscle mitochondrial fractions.

abstract：:Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal X-linked recessive disorder of muscle in children. The DMD gene product, "dystrophin", is absent from DMD, while the allelic disease, Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), exhibits dystrophin of abnormal size and/or quantity. But we are still uncertain about the scenario that in...
